Roll reduction and course keeping for the ship moving in waves with factorized NGMV control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A factorized Nonlinear Generalized Minimum Variance (NGMV) control law is developed for a combined roll and yaw motion compensation using rudders and fins. The nonlinear model used for control design includes the non-minimum phase interaction from rudder

Dynamical Models of Extreme Rolling of Vessels in Head Waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Rolling of a ship is a swinging motion around its length axis. In particular vessels transporting containers may show large amplitude roll when sailing in seas with large head waves.

Smart, Bio‐Inspired Polymers and Bio‐Based Molecules Modified by Zwitterionic Motifs to Design Next‐Generation Materials for Medical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

A Novel Densely Connected Convolutional Neural Network for Sea-State Estimation Using Ship Motion Data

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2020
The sea-state estimation is a fundamental problem in the development of autonomous ships. Traditional methods such as wave buoy, satellites, and wave radars are limited by locations, clouds, and costs, respectively.

An approach to high speed ship ride quality simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
The high speeds attained by certain advanced surface ships result in a spectrum of motion which is higher in frequency than that of conventional ships.

Multiple Twinning in Nacre and Aragonite

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electron backscatter diffraction map of a cluster of geologic aragonite, exhibiting single, double, and triple twins. The whole cluster is approximately 2 cm wide. Colors indicate crystal orientations, so that pixels where the a‐, b‐, and c‐axis is perpendicular to the image plane are green, red, and blue, respectively.

Ship Motion Attitude Prediction Based on an Adaptive Dynamic Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm and Bidirectional LSTM Neural Network

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
A new neural network prediction model is proposed for predicting ship motion attitude with high accuracy. This prediction model is based on an adaptive dynamic particle swarm optimization algorithm (ADPSO) and bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM)

Experimental investigation of wave-induced motions of an obliquely moving ship [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The lateral drift appears due to the effects of wind forces and/or wave drifting forces for a ship sailing in actual sea. The effects of wind forces and / or wave drifting forces in views of lateral drift for ship moving with certain forward speed have ...

Lattice Structures for Bone Replacement: The Intersection of Bone Biomechanics, Lattice Design, and Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review outlines how understanding bone's biology, hierarchical architecture, and mechanical anisotropy informs the design of lattice structures that replicate bone morphology and mechanical behavior. Additive manufacturing enables the fabrication of orthopedic implants that incorporate such structures using a range of engineering materials ...

ChicGrasp: Imitation‐Learning‐Based Customized Dual‐Jaw Gripper Control for Manipulation of Delicate, Irregular Bio‐Products

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Automated poultry processing lines still rely on humans to lift slippery, easily bruised carcasses onto a shackle conveyor. Deformability, anatomical variance, and hygiene rules make conventional suction and scripted motions unreliable. We present ChicGrasp, an end‐to‐end hardware‐software co‐designed imitation learning framework, to offer a ...
